I Wish I Could Tell You...

Chapter 5

    So now I felt as if I was sitting in the Principal's office! Marshall and Stella both were staring at me and waiting for the answer. I couldn't understand from where I should be starting the story. I simply told them about the sleep-over at my place. 

    I couldn't make out what was going on in Marshall's mind. Cause it seemed he was smiling, but at the same time I thought he wanted to pounce on me! Again, he kept silent for a long time. I was really eager to know and finally broke the ice, "What's wrong? Are you even going to react?"

    This guy had the exact or I don't know almost-exact explanation for my case! Marshall just said these words, "For how long are you still going to pretend?"

   "Pretend? What are you talking about? I am in no mood to decode your codes now brother!"

   Marshall and Stella looked at each other and they almost screamed together, "HE LIKES ALICIA!"

   I just couldn't believe what they just said! I mean it's okay for Stella, cause girls are known for such things... But Marshall?! I was simply thinking, 'Man! This girl has ruined my bro!"

   I went home straight away! Me, and like someone? Too much for the day... But the seed was already planted in my mind! God, I hated both Marshall and Stella for this! Obviously, there was nothing in my mind for Alicia before, but now this happened! It was a weird feeling. I couldn't sleep. I was waiting for Alicia's texts, but then when she actually did, I didn't know how or what to talk!

   This couple had ruined it for me! But I was sure that I won't let my friendship with Alicia ruin. Cause now, we were really close and I could't afford to lose her...
